Wait, I thought the Republicans were Constitutional Originalists. Correct me if I’m mistaken.

Nice story, bro.

Calvin Johnson is sitting on a warm beach right now.

No, they’re doing it because they’re communist Muslim terrorists in disguise. Ain't it obveeus, dipstick?

Btw, that’s not Bruce Miller’s #49 jersey, it’s actually the 49ers #49 jersey. The team from San Fran are the “49ers” - not sure if you're aware. #journalism

Um, they're the 49ers, so probably generic...but that's not fun so let's act offended.

There needs to be an embedded MP3 of the Star Spangled Banner before the text of these protest posts because all these posts are disrespectful without it.

Look at those service men and women kinda bending their knees during the anthem! Fuck them for disrespecting themselves!

Let's ask the national anthem if it feels disrespected. Oh wait, it's a fucking racist song that can't talk. Guess you should shut the fuck up.

This is fucking flagrant disrespect by the NCAA toward our National Anthem. The NCAA hasn’t just canceled these events in North Carolina, they’ve canceled the playing of the National Anthem at these events in North Carolina as well. I’m not a member of the military but that is insanely hurtful to the many members of…

Exactly.

The correct way, according to these people, is to donate an entire years salary to fix the problem. And do it anonymously. It's ludicrous.

Right and it’s a choice to go into the military if you want to follow those rules and you feel it’s your calling in life. Why should civilians have to adopt military traditions? Why should civilians be expected to comply with military traditions? Are we a military state now?

Lol at all these motherfuckers who are like “he’s got the right message but he’s doing it the wrong way” — how disingenuous can you be? They don’t care one gray goatee hair about the message.

Hey, can we clear something up? These players are NOT “protesting the anthem” — they are staging a protest DURING the anthem. These things are wildly different. And if people can't see the difference, then they're fucking stupid.

Jesus man, just slide once in your life. Save your body for the wide open spaces of a CFL field.

Pretty fucking disrespectful of the person taking that photograph of the guy raising his fist in the air because they’re obviously not looking at the flag or showing the flag respect during the anthem. Seriously. And the ball boy on the field should also be shot because it’s fucking disrespectful to not have your full…

Thats like a yarmulke on steroids.

And so the pussification of football slowly continues to turn our once beloved game into beach volleyball.

It's only terrible if the player acts like an idiot and wants to get ejected. 999/1000 times, the player will be pissed and use that as motivation for the next play. Just because it didn't work this one time doesn't mean it's a terrible way to do it.
